I assume you meant try in which case yeah give it a go- you get surprising results and I like how you get unexpected colours and stuff.

Just did this, sort of enchanted forest thingy (works best if you stand back a bit from your screen)-

Reminds me of the Old Forest, where Frodo & gang, including Fredegar, are, just before they find the River Withywindle.

Very Happy Im sure you will suss it Norc- you have a hell of a lot more artistic talent than I do (and are probably a lot less drunk) and I managed to make something of it, Im sure you will too.

Not many jobs that look for 'the ability to smudge pictures into other pictures'!

I'm going to try it but I'm complete rubbish at almost everything visual arts-related so I don't expect I'll come up with anything worthy of posting here. Wink

My advice Eldo is just randomly smudge the whole pic at first and see what shapes seem to express something to you then start drawing out more deliberate lines and smudges of colour once you can sort of see what your going for.

I've been smudging for a while now and it keeps looking like different things to me. I'm not sure how to go from indistinct blur to recognizable shape, though. I've tried a few different methods but it's still pretty ugly looking. Laughing

I dont know what advice to give Eldo- I just sort of smudge till something suggests itself then kind of work it through till it looks a bit like it.
If I was on my own pc I would make one of those vids like Norc does to show what I do.

No worries, Petty.  I've long since resigned myself to having no artistic talent.  Doodling in notebooks is good enough for now. Razz

That's totally different from what I was doing, but it looks absolutely fantastic.  The coloring looks even more textured and natural this way.  Really fantastic stuff, Norc! cheers
